The 2023 Table is updated for:

image.png.32fb827739162f2985c00e1babb94be6.png

  • Games played at start of 2024 season
  • New draftees
    • Caleb Windsor, a three year contract in line with new CBA
    • Koltyn Tholstrup a three year contract in line with the CBA
    • Kynan Brown as an A Rookie on a one year contract
  • Inclusions to be confirmed by the club:
    • Marty Hore as an A rookie (Supplementary List), assume a one year contract
    • Dan Turner on a two year contract
    • Andy Moniz-Wakefield rookie contract to be renewed

Therefore, there are no more list spots.  We have kept the 36/6/2 mix of senior/A rookie/ B rookie mix.

Potential milestones in the H & A season:

  • 50 games
    • Bowey
    • Chandler
  • 100 games
    • Rivers
    • Picket
    • Spargo
  • 200 games
    • Hunter
    • Petracca
    • Tomlinson
    • Viney

Key Senior Player signings for 2024 (imv):

Sparrow and Bowey are the major ones to sign up.  Langdon and Hunter will be re-signed.  Also Adams will likely get another contract as it is rare for recent draftees to not have at least one extension.   But a number of others may be encouraged to look elsewhere (eg Laurie, Schache, Smith and maybe Hunter) or retire (eg Brown, McDonald).

Other notes

I reckon Tholstrup will rapidly become a ‘cult hero’ especially among the young.  He has the swagger and the charisma to draw the crowds!!!  Looks like a fun loving kid.

For any contract changes from the club or posters during the off season I will update them all together in March.

Thank you Lucifers Hero very comprehensive and timely as per usual, I can relax now. Just one little thing is Kynan Brown not Tynan. Lol.!!

Fritsch won’t be 31 at the end of his contract 

Thank you all and others for your for support, it is much appreciated.

In the Chart I've added the Dees 2024 draft picks and made the corrections suggested.

 

I welcome further corrections or new player contract info and I'll make the changes in March as after today, I am giving myself a holiday from D'land for the off-season.

Thanks Lucifer for all the work.  Don't know if its my system but all the previous pages appear to have disappeared.

Thanks LH greatly appreciated I assure you, just noticed McAdam think he will be 30 end of 2025. Have a great break and look forward to any changes in March.👍💕

 

We definitely have a premiership list. Just hope we have better luck with injuries and the players keep their heads screwed on tight.

Dees can beat any side in the comp.

We had a mangled VFL standard forward line in the 2023 finals yet lost by only 7 and 2 points to the eventual premiers and bluebaggers.

Sickening stuff.

Thanks stinga!

By previous pages I assume you mean the 2023 Contracts Thread?  To locate it go back to my first post of this thread.  At the bottom of that post is a link (in the form of an image) to the 2023 thread.  Just click on the image and it will take  you to the thread.

Just for you 😊I have updated McAdam before signing off!

He has a 3 year contract expiring in 2026 so I have changed his age to 31.

The fact the club haven't formally announced the extension of AMW and the upgrade of Turner despite both players having known for some 5 weeks is big communication fail that we frankly deserve much better than. 

Totally agree Dannyz every player deserves their time in the sunshine and due recognition. Also supporters need to be informed, the club can’t assume that we are all as informed as us Demonlanders are or as my old boss used to say assume makes an [censored] of you and me.!!

I can’t believe that [censored] is censored.!!

Ha ha ha ha…..!!!

This is my last demonland post. 

As we all know demonland can be wonderfully addictive!  But I've decide to reduce my use of on-line forums, social media and Apps. 

Can't tell you how much I've enjoyed my time on here over the years.  Thanks to everyone for your debate, support, laughs and banter, especially those I've got to know through messenger.

Wishing you all the very best.  Travel well, demonlanders.

To a 2024 Flag 🥂

Cheers,

Luci

 

Edit:  I've sent a copy of the Contracts Excel worksheet to Andy.  If anyone would like to volunteer to continue with it I'm sure he and demonlander's would apperciate it.  It is very easy to maintain; it is but a simple table.

 have always had a spreadsheet of the list details, and helped keep it running years back, so I am happy to assist in keeping it up to date :)

Can’t you just take a break???? It doesn’t have to be forever. You KNOW you’ll miss us… eventually. And we’ll miss you - very much. 😢

edit: sorry M, that was spoilt brat me. Of course we should respect your decision to leave, as sad as that is. Thank you for your endlessly entertaining and informative posts. You’re one in a million. 💖

That is disappointing Luci as you have been a very good contributor to DL.

Hope you have a change of heart ,but in the meantime thanks for your posts and keep well.

  • WHAT’S NEXT? by The Oracle

    What’s next for a beleagured Melbourne Football Club down in form and confidence, facing  intense criticism and disapproval over some underwhelming recent performances and in the midst of a four game losing streak? Why, it’s Adelaide which boasts the best percentage in the AFL and has won six of its last seven games. The Crows are hot and not only that, the game is at the Adelaide Oval; yet another away fixture and the third in a row at a venue outside of Victoria. One of the problems the Demons have these days is that they rarely have the luxury of true home ground advantage, something they have enjoyed just once since mid April.

  • REPORT: Gold Coast

    From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

  • CASEY: Gold Coast

    Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

    With their season all over bar the shouting the Demons head back on the road for the third week in a row as they return to Adelaide to take on the Crows. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

    The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.
